Very, very nice. The DFNYC has opened, Main Page - DfnycResearch, a wiki for their Research and Advocacy committees. I hope it takes off because there is nothing like this for New York City politics.

Here at The Daily Gotham we do have a feature called "Books". They are like collaborative blogs where one person can post "a page", link it a "Book" and then have others come in an contribute and/or change it. I guess because the feature is so close to being like a blog not a lot of people are too crazy about Drupal's book features. Wikis, on the other hand, hook people in a whole different way. I guess it does not hurt that the most widely use wiki software was put out by the people that produced Wikipedia.

Here's the information I got from the DFNYC :

Now that you have all had a chance to recover from primary season, it's time to get back to business. Our next full Research & Advocacy meeting will be Wednesday, September 28 at 7pm, again at Cosi 76th St & Broadway.

We will have presentations on local energy & environmental issues, as well as public access television and the media on a national level. In addition, we will briefly discuss the progress you all have made since the last meeting.

As a reminder, if you have not yet created an account on the R&A wiki, do so now. The URL is http://www.dfnyc.org/research.
